Advertising as Literary Art explores advertising beyond its commercial purpose, revealing it as a sophisticated form of literary and artistic expression. Drawing upon three decades of research, the book examines how advertising employs the resources of literature-imagery, metaphor, symbolism, rhythm, narrative, tone and style-to inform, persuade and inspire. It demonstrates that effective advertising is not merely persuasive communication; it is a creative discourse that reflects cultural values, human aspirations and the power of imagination.Bridging the disciplines of literature, linguistics, aesthetics, communication and marketing, this book offers a unique framework for understanding advertising as a cultural text. It will be valuable to students, scholars, researchers, advertising professionals and all readers interested in the creative interplay of language, meaning and human experience.
